CNET Editors' review
System Cleaner is the ultimate system maintenance tool. And even though it does come with a few trial restrictions, we were impressed with its capability to quickly scan, locate, and repair problems files on our computer.
The user interface is very clean and very easy to navigate. You have five menu options, each with its own tools for optimizing your system. We first opted to scan and clean our disk space. The program quickly went to work, scanning our system and finding problem files. We especially appreciated that the program let us view the details of the scan before fixing the problems. Too often, similar programs don't let you manage the problem files. Some of the program's features are locked until you register, and pay for, the program. But we were still able to successfully fix some of the problem files and gain a clear picture of how well the program works. The Registry Cleaner also worked exceptionally well, letting us view the details of the scan before fixing them. The program includes a Startup Manager, as well as a System Snapshot tool. The program has an extensive Settings menu that lets you select the utilities you want to protect by another handy tool, the Restore Manager.
On top of the locked features, the program also restricts you to a brief 15-day trial period. Despite its ease of use, this isn't a program for novice users, or anyone not familiar or comfortable working with the registry. For those who are, we highly recommend this comprehensive system maintenance program.
Publisher's Description
From Pointstone Software:
Your PC is slowing down. Programs don't run as fast as they used to; it takes longer to boot up in the morning and sometimes it takes forever to shut down at the end of the day. Don't worry, you're not alone. These kinds of things happen to all PCs eventually. It's not your fault. Your PC needs an occasional tune-up just like your car does. Files become fragmented, disk caches fill up, the all-important Windows Registry gets disorganized and, before you know it, your PC starts letting you down when you need it the most. These problems are not going to go away by themselves... But it doesn't take much to fix them. All you have to do is download System Cleaner, the premier software package that's custom designed to get your Windows-based PC performing as if it were factory new, and you're all set. And don't forget to take care of your online privacy while you're at it. System Cleaner also erase all of your footprints so you can be sure that what you do online isn't seen by other PC users.
What's new in this version: Version 5.95d includes enhancements to the Disk Cleaner and Registry Cleaner modules as well as minor bug fixes.

This program is very easy to use, I was able to understand all of it's features at the first glance. It also did a very good job cleaning up my pc, since I started using it I feel like my system has become at least 150% faster.

"An advanced systems cleaner thats easy to use."
Version: System Cleaner 5.93
Pros
Easy to use, Cleans all the unwanted junk and data files, Made mycomputer speed back to brand new. The scans are quick and unlike other software, they find your problems fast so you are not stuck in limbo waiting to clean your computer.
Cons
None that I saw
Summary
I came to this software because I believe in optimal performance. One thing I learned is that there are a bunch of places on your computer where junk is stored. Whether its computer, internet, or any other files being stored, this stuff slows you down. Well the Pointstone System Cleaner is a very easy tool that does all the work for you. That way I am not wasting my time trying to make sure I got it all. In other words, I can set it and forget it so I always have a brand new computer at my fingertips. Now my computer is always fast and I don't get stupid glitches anymore. Thanks guys

Cons
No improvement in years that I can see. only so-so interface.
Summary
Better than nothing

"One of the few utilities which isn't freeware"
Version: System Cleaner 5.91c
Pros
It makes a lot of necessary work easier to accomplish, but that's what it's supposed to do. It does them very well and I'm pretty fussy. It also is significantly superior to Glary Utilities. If that weren't the case I would be using it.
Cons
I might add a tool or two but it's still worth more than its price.

"Underrated, due to lack of experience."
Version: System Cleaner 5.90
Pros
Read Summary
Cons
Read Summary
Summary
I've tried many utilities.. and i mean MANY.
Now if you're doubting:
I did enjoy the benefits of other utilities such as"
Tune Up Utilities 2010
Ace Utilities
Glary Utilities
JV16 2010
Super Utilities
Advanced System Optimizer
Ashampoo WinOptimizer
Advanced SystemCare
System mechanic
and on and on... I know, I'm obssessed.
And the conclusion is obvious. People prefer one software over another.
All these software have something in common.
They are not perfectly safe. I heard and read dozens of bad reviews of all of the above saying their computer got messed up while some had no problems.
If you are sick of my talking, here is the Point.
I found something rare about this software. It is absolutely safe. The one you can guarantee which won't mess up your computer in any way and yet cleans sincerely.
This is what makes Pointstone System Cleaner UNIVERSAL.
For example, My friend's dad knows that I'm good with computers, so he asked me to recommend him a good software that won't mess up his computer. He is almost a computer paranoid. I understand... he has many important things.
So out of all the list, I recommended him Pointstone System Cleaner. And as soon as he tried out the fully function trial (with no limitations thanks to pointstone) he was delighted with its simplicity and safeness yet effective.'
Those who want to settle down with a good cleaner without being too obsessed like me. I recommend the one and only Pointstone System Cleaner. This is the truth. I mean it.
But I myself currently use:
-Tune Up Utilities
-Pointstone System Cleaner
and Ace Utilities
Now if you're doubting:
How can I trusted over others when I onlyI seem like an anonymous in the face of the earth? Who defines expert anyways? You can trust me because I through the testing of almost all cleaners on the net reformatted my computer over 100 times on dozens of machines. And much more sacrifices I made, for discovering the best.
Isn't real life computer experience more real than acting like an computer expert for getting paid?
If you are tempted to argue please don't hesitate, I WILL RESPOND TO YOU LOGICALLY. Don't hold back. Thanks
